Chapter 325: Return to the Hu Mansion (I)
Nanya City, a small city outside the Nanya Mountains.
The city has always been controlled by the largest family in the city, the Hu family, where the Hu family is the sky. It's just that later, a foreign family entered strongly, which also changed the pattern of Nanya City, and became controlled by two major families.
The Xiao family, who came from outside, after coming to Nanya City, used tough methods, once compressing the Hu family's sphere of influence, and faintly suppressed the Hu family and drove the Hu family out of Nanya City.
But at this moment, for some reason, the eldest son, second son and eldest grandson of the Xiao family died violently at the same time. Some people are rumored that the Hu family secretly killed them, but no one has any evidence, so this matter has always been a mystery.
The middle-aged generation lost two, and the younger generation lost the only male member. This is a great blow to a family, even with the strength of the Xiao family, it has suddenly converged a lot, giving the Hu family a chance to breathe.
It's just that this time didn't last long, and the Xiao family's counterattack began, and it was even crazier than before. Some other small families in the city began to resist the Hu family almost at the same time, restricting the Hu family in various ways, coupled with the oppression of the Xiao family, the Hu family, which had just eased their days, once again fell into a passive situation.
At this time, on the second floor of a small restaurant in Nanya City, because it was afternoon, it was not a meal, so there were only two or three tables to eat.
At this time, a little housekeeper of the Hu family who had returned from errands was enjoying a reception banquet for him from a few friends, and several people were eating and drinking with laughter. Suddenly, a flask flew into the air and landed right on the little steward's head.
"Ah, what bastard!" said the little steward, and screamed in pain, blood pouring down his head.
"It's you, just eat, eat quietly!" a rough voice came.
The little steward, who was covering the wound on his head, followed the sound and saw a man with his bare upper body eating a large piece of beef.
The little steward of the Hu family said angrily: "Do you know who I am?"
The big man laughed, wiped the grease stains on the corner of his mouth and said, "Of course I know, you are my son." ”
The angry little steward of the Hu family, with his three friends who had dinner with him, surrounded the big man, wanting to teach him some lessons. Unexpectedly, as soon as they walked over, the big man stood up, slapped one by one, and slapped several people to the ground. The little steward was also thrown out of the window of the restaurant.
This little steward was just an ordinary person, and after being thrown down from the second floor, he fell to pieces. When his friends saw this, they cried and shouted that they would come back for revenge, and at the same time they ran down, picked up the seriously injured little steward and fled together.
When the big man saw those people running away, he laughed a few times, threw a silver ingot on the table, and swaggered downstairs.
Just when Xiao Er came to clean up the table, a low cry came.
"Little second brother, can you come over for a moment?"
Xiao Er looked for a sound, and saw a young man in his twenties sitting by the window, very ordinary, belonging to the type that is inconspicuous and disappears when thrown into the crowd.
Despite this, when Xiao Er heard someone calling, he also rushed over, which is their professional accomplishment, and they need to be in place as soon as the customer tells them.
"What do you command, this guest officer?" asked Xiao Er when he came to the young man's side.
This young man is Xiao Ba, Xiao Ba glanced at Xiao Er, smiled slightly: "Little Second Brother, who were those people just now? Why do you seem to be sincerely found fault? I think those people, the voice just now is not so loud, right?"
When Xiao Er heard this, his face changed, and he immediately made a silent gesture and said, "This guest officer, you should be quiet, don't let others hear it." ”
Xiao Ba raised his eyebrows, and sure enough, there was a problem here, so he lowered his voice and said, "Little second brother, what's wrong?"
Xiao Er looked embarrassed and said, "This guest officer, you are from out of town, don't ask too much." ”
Xiao Ba took out a piece of silver from his arms and quietly pushed it in front of Xiao Er, and said in a low voice: "Little Second Brother, just tell me, I am curious, timid, and I don't dare to cause trouble, so you will fulfill me and let me have a good time." ”
When Xiao Er saw the silver on the table, he suddenly became a lot bolder, looked around a little, and saw that no one was looking at this side, so he simply sat down and said, "Since the guest officer wants to know, then I'll tell you, but don't mention this matter after you go out." ”
Seeing that Xiao Ba nodded in agreement, Xiao Er said, "Those four people just now are from the Hu family. And that big man seems to belong to the Xiao family. ”
"The two of them don't deal with each other?" Hachi pretended to be curious.
Xiao Er lowered his voice and said, "Why don't you deal with it, it's almost to the point where you can fight when you meet." I thought that the Hu family was also the overlord of our Nanya City back then, but I didn't expect it to fall to the current point. ”
"I also heard that the Hu family is very big, how can this be? What happened?" Xiao Ba continued to ask, but he had doubts in his heart, he clearly remembered that Hu Yiming and Hu Sanxiao had designed to kill Xiao Jiang, Xiao Yu, and Xiao Tian. It stands to reason that a family will inevitably weaken a lot if it loses such three important people in the family at once, how can it force the Hu family to be like this now?
Xiao Er opened his mouth and said: "Presumably, the guest officer doesn't know, and this has to start with the arrival of the Xiao family." Saying that, Xiao Er introduced how strong the Xiao family was when they came here and how they forced the Hu family, but these were of little use to Xiao Ba, who had been here, and he already knew it. What he wanted to know was what had happened to the Hu family since he left.
"Little second brother, even if the Xiao family is very strong, it can't be so obvious to trouble the Hu family, after all, the Hu family is the overlord of the land here, isn't it? It is said that there are more than 10,000 people in his family. ”
After hearing this, Xiao Er smiled and said: "Little brother, you don't know this, the Hu family did have more than 10,000 people at the beginning, but now, there are more than 1,000 people." ”
"Ah, how can there be so much difference?, where have all the people gone?" Hachi exclaimed.
Xiao Er said: "In recent days, there have been many problems in Hufu, and there are often cases of water walking, theft, and sometimes human death, which makes people panic. Do you dare to stay in such a place? You can't stay for two days and your life will be gone. So even if the Hu family hires a family with a high salary, no one wants to go, and no one will die to make money, don't you say?"
"I see, could this be done by the Xiao family?" asked Hachi.
After hearing this, Xiao Er's face changed, and he immediately reached out to cover Xiao Ba's mouth, and at the same time glanced left and right, and saw that there was nothing unusual, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Little brother, you can't talk nonsense, if you don't do it, it will cause death." After speaking, he pointed to Xiaoba's chest and said in a low voice: "It's good to understand in your heart, remember, don't talk nonsense." ”
After hearing this, Xiaoba also nodded sternly, saying that he understood.
After a few more simple exchanges, Hachi couldn't ask any clues, so he paid for the wine and left.
Not long after, Xiaoba came to the door of the Hu Mansion, only to see that the Hu Mansion at this time, although it was still magnificent, had a feeling of being cold. In the past, there were only two greeting men outside the door, but at this time, there were only two thin and listless faces, looking like they were messing around.
Xiao Ba slowly came to the door of Hufu, and when the two doormen saw a stranger coming, they stretched their waists and said lazily: "Are you here to work hard?"
Xiaoba was helpless, and looked at the appearance of the dust on his body because he came from a hurry, and it was indeed quite similar. However, he was not in the mood to tease the two, so he shook his head and said, "I want to see Hu Yiming." ”
